Michaela MacColl

Set in 1878, this historical story follows Ning, a Chinese American girl forced to leave Shanghai for America. She must live with her American father’s parents, relatives she barely knows, after leaving the home she has known. As Ning adjusts to this move, she struggles to work out where she belongs in a new country and unfamiliar household. The narrative centers on family separation, migration, and a young person’s search for a place in the world.
